My Little Valentines

I had a wonderful day today with my students because they are progressing in learning steps in dancing, preparing them for the upcoming performance.  I see their enthusiasm and excitement with every improvement or accomplishment they make on a daily basis.  When they line-up outside my classroom to enter my class, I could tell that they can not hardly wait to come in and practice their dance steps.  I observe when students enjoy what they are learning they get excited and anxious to participate.  Moreover, when we plan our instructions we should keep in mind to plan exciting lessons where we get our students to be anxious and excited.

  1. Sounds really fun! My students are also learning to sing and dance for this coming Chamorro month. They are very excited to perform and showcase their talents.

  2. Yeah! It sounds really fun. My valentines is not going well with my students. I have hard time dealing with the ones that are overreacted. How do you deal with students that are overreacted?

  4. Student excitement for upcoming performances are contagious. It also is part of what keeps us going as teachers.

    I always thought Chamorro class/instruction allowed for all students (ESL or not) to be on common ground, because many students come in with little to no knowledge of the language. So when there is excitement about what is going on in Chamorro class, EVERYONE shares the same excitement. I don't get that kind of class unification in class activities. Sometimes, but not always.

  5. That's good news. I actually hated dancing when I was a kid but to see your students doing well in what they are learning is always good news ^_^

  6. That is so great Toni. Students are always excited about fun activities even when they don't see dancing as an activity. I am glad that they are enjoying themselves as well as learning what they needed to know for their performance.
